Overview

This is a fully private tour - your group only!

The Royal National Park has waterfalls, cliffs, beaches, rock platforms, sand dunes and rainforest.

On our walk to Wedding Cake Rock we will see native animals and plants, and panoramic views from steep cliffs.

The pure white sandstone of Wedding Cake Rock is perfectly complemented by the blue Pacific Ocean.

The next stop after the walk is Wattamolla Beach and waterfall followed by a drive through the park where we see tall timber and rainforest.

Leaving the park presents yet more spectacular views at Bald Hill lookout.

It is time to choose whether to visit Symbio Wildlife Park and enjoy a diverse range of native animals or go further south and explore a local beach, Sea Cliff Bridge and a renovated historic hotel.

The day is flexible and we can do a longer walk to Eagle Rock, or do no walks at all if you prefer minimal walking.

We will walk at a pace that suits your group.

Join us for an uplifting day in nature.

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
